Engine Build

Just got the engine and head back from the machine shop. Here's the head. I should have taken a "before" picture as the difference is incredible. Now everything is being triple cleaned and painted.

Are those valve springs on the right valves? It appears the rotators are on the intakes.

There are two keepers, I saw that also. One is shiny and one is black. And yes, the valve caps are correct, for some reason I was thinking the raised caps were the rotators.
